So having moaned about a distinct lack of sleep lately, I decided to use the Science America link Atom sent me, and found one or two articles about sleep deprivation and things like that. Altho I think i’m the opposite of some of what the studies are claiming 
The first article was on about being able to catch up on lost sleep, and the myth that if you lose a few hours friday night, you can gain them back by lying in sunday morning or something
Let’s do some sleep math. You lost two hours of sleep every night last week because of a big project due on Friday. On Saturday and Sunday, you slept in, getting four extra hours. Come Monday morning, you were feeling so bright-eyed, you only had one cup of coffee, instead of your usual two. But don’t be duped by your apparent vim and vigor: You’re still carrying around a heavy load of sleepiness, or what experts call “sleep debt”—in this case something like six hours, almost a full nights’ sleep.

Reading that I think i’ve lost about 6 weeks in the last year and a half or something :shock:Â There was a link also to another scientific study that claims sleep deprivation is tied into shifts in hunger hormones 
Upon reading, they claim that the more sleep you lose, the hungrier you become, linking a lack of sleep with weight gain! Well I can say that I’m the opposite of that!! The more tired I feel the less likely I am to eat 
Not getting enough shut-eye could be interfering with your ability to shed unwanted pounds. Previous research has shown that sleep could be a key regulator of body weight and metabolism. New findings link changes in two important appetite-regulating hormones to the amount of sleep people regularly get.

Then the last article is on about hos the less sleep we get. the more the dreams seem like reality, and the more dreams we get!
About three years ago Eva Salem got into some trouble with a crocodile. It snapped her hand in its jaws. In a panic, she managed to knock out the crocodile and free herself. Then, she woke up.

Well I may have loads of dreams, but can never remember them, so just make out I dont have any it’s easier :lol:Â Thats enough from the geeky side of Wiggy hahaha!!
Last night I could have nipped to the gym, but would rather only use my car for work till Friday when it’s going in for a full service, which it deserves having done just over 3000 miles, Hoping to drop the car off straight after the gym tonight, and leave it for Johns dad to sort out for me :DÂ Watched the latest One Tree Hill, and it gets better, and sat chatting to Em for a bit winding her up, as she’s not seen Season 5 yet :lol:Â All in all a very boring night to be honest
